Hey @philiphorrocks, thanks for opening this issue. Golang support for any CDK ecosystem project depends on jsii to enable us to generate CDK constructs. Currently, jsii doesn't have support for Golang but from what we know, it is being worked on by the team. GH issue: aws/jsii#83

The overall progress of GoLang support for jsii can be tracked here https://github.com/aws/jsii/projects/2

Golang JSII support is in developer preview now. Any chance this can be tried out for terraform-cdk?

Initial support will probably wait for jsii-srcmak to support go. See cdklabs/jsii-srcmak#342

@jsteinich I see that cdklabs/jsii-srcmak#476 has been merged (which supersedes cdklabs/jsii-srcmak#342), so I'm curious what are next steps?

@weberc2-tempus Work has been in-progress for awhile now. I expect that a preview release will be available soon. Take a look here for more detailed progress.
